Vincenzo Pietropaolo (born in 1951) was an award-winning photographer known for photographs that display an empathy for his subjects, who has focussed on documentary photography.[1] In 2011, Satu Repo wrote about the first of Pietropaolo's photographs to be published, in 1971, in This magazine. Those photos were of immigrant workers, on strike outside Artistic Woodwork. She described how "The photos were remarkable in both their intensity and intimacy. You were face-to-face with these men, solemn but determined, exercising their right to organize. You couldn’t help but share the photographer’s clear empathy for them."

Since then Pietropaolo's photographs have been widely published, have been the subject of gallery shows, and have won awards, including the Cesar E. Chavez Black Eagle Award.[1][2][3]

During the 1970s and 1980s Pietropaolo also worked in the field of city planning, choosing to devote himself exclusively to photography in 1991.[4][5][6]
